• Strand-Mounting
a. The minimum diameter of the strand should be 5/16". Loosen the strand clamp bolts to separate the clamps enough to
insert the strand. Position the Cisco CMC on the strand and lightly tighten the strand clamp bolts with your finger.
b. Move the Cisco CMC on the strand as required for installing the cables and tighten the strand clamp bolts using a torque
wrench and ½-inch socket from 5 ft-lb to 8 ft-lb.
Open the Cisco CMC lid to perform one or all of the following:
Step 3
a. To connect the RJ-45 cable, remove the RJ-45 PG16 port plug. Insert the RJ-45 cable through the PG16 gland and the
RJ-45 port. Then, plug in the RJ-45 connector into the GE port. Tighten the PG16 gland into the RJ-45 port using a
torque wrench (4.44 ft-lb) and then tighten the dome cap using a torque wrench (2.44 ft-lb).
b. To connect the optical fiber to the SFP module, remove the 5/8" port plug. Insert the SFP module into the SFP cage, if
not already installed. Insert the optical fiber into the fiber port and then insert the connector into the SFP module port.
Secure the optical fiber using the cable clips as shown in the figure. Seal the fiber port after the installation. Supported
SFPs include EPON SFP, GPON SFP, and GE SFP.
